Brett Davis-Imagn Images Sideshow Bert is going portaling. Texas Longhorns senior kicker Bert Auburn announced his intentions to enter the NCAA transfer portal on Thursday evening after an up-and-down career on the Forty Acres that included clutch kicks in the 2022 and 2023 seasons before struggles in 2024 that culminated with his benching for the Cotton Bowl after missing two go-ahead field goals in the final 1:37 of regulation against the Arizona State Sun Devils. Thank you Texas.

Tim Heitman-Imagn Images In a program built in head coach Steve Sarkisian’s image that just made back-to-back College Football Playoff semifinal appearances, the defensive backs look the part as much as any position on the Forty Acres. “When you look at the secondary as a whole, just body type, skill set, ability, corner, Star, safeties, I would argue it’s probably one of our better, if not our best, looking position on the team,” Sarkisian said last week.

Reid Watkins The first player to enter the NCAA transfer portal for the Texas Longhorns since the spring window opened on Wednesday is sophomore running back Reid Watkins, who spent one season on the Forty Acres as a walk on. I have entered the transfer portal with 4 years of eligibility left.

Tracking one of the biggest storylines of spring practice for the Longhorns -- how Steve Sarkisian and Kyle Flood are able to replace 157 career starts along the offensive line. https://t.co/nISpAVjYGp
How spring position changes by Ryan Niblett, Jaylon Guilbeau, and Trey Moore are going for a Longhorns defense intent on developing elite versatility. #HookEm https://t.co/oQ5x4MIH9C
It’s easy for Weiner to deliver that message in games because there’s been so much intentional and effective work to ensure the pitchers are empowered for success.
I still don’t think I’ve seen a mound visit that doesn’t include Max laughing & smiling with the pitcher. I’m sure other things have been said…but controlling the moment & relaxing is vital. It’s just a game..have fun. 🤘🤘
